Happy Monday!
Here is what you can expect this week.
Math: We will finish multiplying by fractions this week. Answers should always be in lowest terms. One way you can help your student at home is to make sure they are comfortable simplifying fractions.
Writing: Final drafts of country reports are due on Friday! We spend several days working on them in class. Students need to finish them at home. Let me know if you or your student have any questions. In class we will be learning how to organize a persuasive essay.
Reading: We will be working on making inferences based on facts in our novels and nonfiction.
Spelling: Students will be practicing how to make different words plural. They will be able to identify when words need an apostrophe.
Social Studies: We will finish our study of Ancient Greece this week. By the end of this unit students should be able to tell you about the location, culture and government of Ancient Greece.
Science: We wil finish our unit on Moon Phases this week. We will test tomorrow and begin learning about why Earth has seasons. Students will be bringing home a survey about seasons for YOU to complete.
Have a great week!
